"Borate Seal," a sealing material containing "boric acid" that follows movement.
The key to termite prevention is to "cut off physical entry routes." "Boreit Seal" is a groundbreaking sealing material that, unlike conventional anti-termite sealing materials, maintains its anti-termite effectiveness over the long term and flexibly follows the movements of buildings and the contraction of materials, preventing gaps from forming. The reason it can follow movements is that it uses a sealing material derived from natural plant oils and fats. Sealing materials are generally water-based and seal gaps by completely hardening after application. However, because they completely harden, they cannot follow movements, and when buildings or materials shift, new gaps can occur. Moreover, synthetic insecticides derived from pesticides lose their effectiveness in a few years, necessitating reapplication. However, it is difficult to reapply in areas that are not visible. Awarded the Good Design Award in 2018 In the case of Boreit Seal, even though the outer layer hardens, the inside remains soft, making it less likely for new gaps to form. Additionally, the incorporated "boric acid" is an inorganic substance that does not volatilize, thus maintaining its anti-termite effectiveness over the long term. Its recognition as a groundbreaking sealing material that has never been seen before led to Boreit Seal being the first anti-termite sealing material to receive the Good Design Award.

Meaningless Synthetic Insecticide Treatment Until now, in Japan, when building a wooden house, in most cases, treatment with synthetic insecticides for preservation and termite prevention has been carried out. Since synthetic insecticides derived from pesticides do not have long-lasting effects, re-treatment is necessary every few years. However, properly re-treating incurs a significant economic burden and poses risks to the health of residents and the ecosystem, as well as the global environment. As a result, very few houses are actually re-treated, and the reality is that most wooden houses in Japan are defenseless against decay and termites. Future Preservation and Termite Prevention with "Boric Acid" On the other hand, are you aware that "boric acid," a natural material, has preservation and termite prevention effects? In Europe and the United States, where there are strict regulations on pesticides, boric acid treatment has already become standard. In Japan, with proper knowledge and techniques, safe and secure boric acid measures for preservation and termite prevention can be implemented. Boric acid, being an inorganic substance, does not volatilize and maintains its effectiveness for a long time when treated during construction. It is economically reassuring as it does not require re-treatment. Due to its high safety, it can be applied to all structural materials, and it is effective against the expanding damage caused by the American wood-destroying termite.
